Grand Day Trip around Copenhagen

Grand Day Trip around Copenhagen

This is the only tour in the Copenhagen area that not only includes the famous royal castles but also visits the former capital, Roskilde.

You can go to the four sites on your own on day trips from Copenhagen. But this tour is the only way to see it all in one day.

You will be driven around in a nice mini van and guided by a local, knowledgeable and English speaking tour guide.

The group size will be 16 people or less making it personal and efficient.

The tour includes a full visit to these four sites:

Kronborg Castle

The impressive and world famous fortification that has guarded the entrance to the Baltic Sea for six centuries and is the setting for Shakespeare’s play ‘Hamlet’. Enjoy the spectacular views across the water to Sweden.Read more

Frederiksborg Palace

The largest and most extravagant Renaissance castle in Scandinavia. You will be overwhelmed by both the magnificent location on a lake and all the gold and beautifully decorated rooms and paintings.Read more

Roskilde Cathedral

No other building in the world has as many kings and queens buried in it. This UNESCO World Heritage site is both beautiful and the most important church in Scandinavia.

The Viking Ship Museum

Modern rebuilt models and excavated original ships from the time when the Vikings conquered much of Western Europe and ruled the North Atlantic.Read more

Starting point

H.C. Andersens Boulevard between Tivoli and City Hall (On the Tivoli side)

Pick-up from hotels

Can be arranged free of charge for hotels in inner Copenhagen. You can book the pick up here on the website when buying tickets for the tour.

If nothing has been arranged with us, we expect you to be at the starting point of the tour in the morning.

Group size

Never more than 16 people. On average 10 – 11 people

Disabilities

The castles are old and without elevators. Sometimes there are long walks on cobbled streets from the parking lots to the sights. We cannot change the layout of the sights. So we must apologise that the tour is NOT suited for people that do not walk well and impossible to take in a wheelchair

Lunch

At a nice and inexpensive local café. You pay for what you order. (Not included in the price).
